After missing 17-games, due to a sprained right big toe injury, Bane is upgraded to questionable and has a significant chance to play either tonight against the Suns or against the Warriors on Christmas Day.
To say the least, this would be huge for the Grizzlies. Desmond Bane was off to a terrific start to the season before injuring himself against the Timberwolves on November 11th. He pretty much missed over a month’s worth of action.
He’s averaging 24.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game. So, easily, the Grizzlies will be better with him than without him. The combination of Morant, Bane, and Brooks is very good – amongst all the other key players Memphis has.
With him being upgraded to questionable and with all the chatter bubbling around his status, expect to play tonight or on Christmas Day.
